Lawn care applicator struggles to know exactly how long to run sprinklers to deliver 0.5 inches of water after applying granular products, because current measurement method (yellow box) is imprecise and requires manual timing.

Workarounds Described

• Uses a yellow box (manual catch cup) to measure water depth and runs sprinkler for 70 minutes feeling uncertain

Implied Software Gaps

• Irrigation calculator app that integrates product watering requirements and sprinkler system specs to give exact runtime

WaterReach

WaterReach is a smart irrigation assistant that tells lawn care pros exactly how long to run each zone to deliver a precise amount of water (e.g., 0.5 inches). It connects to existing sprinkler controllers or uses a simple timer, factoring in local weather and soil type. No more guessing or manual catch cups.
